...once again a bunch of nimby's strike - you can't stop progression! You winge about the pot of gold at the end of your career but what about the future for everyone else? The future is development and whether that comes in the form of housing or other method : get over it! - YOLO!!!!

This is not the only group in Darlington trying to stop the Serial Losers that are the DBC Cabinet from building on our green spaces. If Bill and Ada get their way, we will have no green spaces left. They are closing perfectly good schools, so that they can free up the playing fields and sites. Don't forget who foots the bill for this. The new schools are built on land not available for housing, or unsuitable, while the valuable older schools and their sites are sold to developers for knock down prices.

We need to support all the protests now, because the council are even now looking at a plot of land near you.

Your council spokesperson trots out the usual comment about how destroying open space will be good for local residents.
A consultation period has been mentioned but in respect to building proposals in Bellburn lane this is a sham!
DBC cabinet meeting on 4th Feb passed a vote to approach a developer and ask Govt for funds to build 'affordable' housing on the site.
This means that once again they are not listening to local opinion.
Even our councillors carn't be bothered.
Darlington is below the national average for open space per 1000 population,but still they insist on building on greenfield land.
